"About what I just said, catch that evil dark wizard" Although he knew it was unlikely, Ivan was still ready to try again.
"We will not help human beings, let alone disobey God's will." This time, Bane did not look at Mars in the sky again, he answered Aiwen's question accurately, with a hint of warning in his serious voice, "As it did two years ago, the trajectory of Mars has shown its omens, and what is destined to happen should not be changed."
"Although there are some changes, the result is still the same." Ronan then added, saying in his sad voice, "Tonight's Mars is brighter than ever before, which indicates that the most terrifying disaster is about to come."
"But" Ivan wasn't sure if they were referring to Voldemort's imminent re-emergence. According to Professor Trelawney's prediction, the rising Voldemort this time would be stronger and more terrifying than ever before.
He didn't know who the man chosen by Voldemort was, but if the centaurs could help him capture Peter Pettigrew, they might be able to prevent Voldemort's return.
"It's nothing to worry about. I know what you're thinking, but the war between wizards has nothing to do with us. The centaurs care about astrological prophecies. We have no obligation to help humans." Bane replied bluntly. , "It is absolutely impossible for us to change what is about to happen, we have sworn!"
Ivan wanted to say something more, and asked about the key to the Gryffindor treasure, but suddenly a dazzling red and white light came from the depths of the Forbidden Forest, accompanied by waves of heat, like the sun at noon, turning the darkness into darkness The Forbidden Forest is fully illuminated.
"What's going on here?" Ronan scratched the soil with his hooves anxiously, "It seems to be on fire, that direction is"
"It's the territory of those giant acromants, something must have happened!" Bain took the bow and arrow from his back.
The two of them didn't look at Aiwen again, turned around and rushed over quickly. In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the depths of the jungle, leaving only the sound of horseshoes echoing in the open space.
Aiwen also hurriedly followed, he knew that he was burning Aragog's lair, he must be faster, and there was not much time left for him. Instead of going in the direction Ronan and Bane left, he ran in another direction, knowing that he would meet his past self and Peter Pettigrew there.
Ivan ran forward for a few minutes and entered the territory of the acromantula.
The terrain sloped down significantly, and the surrounding trees began to wither gradually, showing an unhealthy gray color, with cobwebs and white spider pupae appearing from time to time.
Alvin was highly concentrated, and he clenched the wand in his hand.
Hearing Aragog's call, the acromantids scattered throughout the Forbidden Forest were gathering towards the center of the depression, and the number was increasing.
Click click, click click, click click
Just as Aiwen raised his vigilance, three millstone-sized spiders jumped down from the surrounding trees at the same time.
They wave their sharp claws and make a terrifying clicking sound.
Ai Wen hurriedly dodged to the right, rolling on the ground in embarrassment.
A red light came out from the end of his wand, knocking the spiders in front of him into the air, and then he turned around quickly. Ivan stopped suddenly. He was surprised to see that the bodies of the two giant arachnids behind him had been shot by bows and arrows. Completely penetrated, firmly nailed to the ground, unable to move.
The two spiders struggled constantly, making a poignant sound.
Ivan raised his head in surprise, and saw a centaur standing beside him, not Ronan or Bain, this centaur looked younger. His hair was platinum and he had the body of a horse with a silver mane.
"Are you okay?" The centaur came over and pulled Ai Wen up.
"It's okay, thank you, my name is Ivan Mason, from Hogwarts!" Ivan patted the dust on his body, and then he was attracted by the eyes of the centaur.
It was a pair of amazing blue eyes, like pale sapphires.
"I heard Hagrid mentioning you, Ivan!" the centaur said softly, "My name is Firenze!"
Ivan suddenly realized that it was him.
Like most of the centaurs in the Forbidden Forest, Firenze is also very awed by the destiny, and feels the uncertainty of life, full of wisdom but good at watching.
But compared to other centaurs who dislike and disdain wizards, Firenze is not so repulsive towards humans, and does not hesitate to lend a helping hand. This makes Firenze an anomaly for Bain and Ronan, who think that the centaur's responsibility lies in being a neutral bystander.
Ivan still remembers that when Harry was in fifth grade, Firenze even accepted Dumbledore's invitation to replace the expelled Professor Trelawney as a professor of divination. He accepted this position and was exiled by his tribe, and the other centaurs called him a captive slave of humans.
"Although I don't know why you came here, for a young wizard of your age, the Forbidden Forest is not safe tonight." Firenze looked at Ivan, "These acromantids have all become manic , more aggressive than usual, I must send you back"
"No, I can't leave, I have to catch Peter Pettigrew."
"Peter Pettigrew?!" Firenze repeated slowly.
"Yes, he is an evil dark wizard, he is"
Before Ivan could finish his words, he heard Firenze say, "I know him, that Peter Pettigrew, he and James Potter, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupine had four people twenty years ago. I have been to our tribe a few times when I was a pony, and every time they came, they brought me magic items, food, and very interesting stories made by your humans."
Firenze seemed to be recalling, and Ivan looked at him in surprise. It turns out that there is such a thing. No wonder Firenze has a good impression of human beings. Now it seems that it is very likely that he was influenced by Harry's father and the four of them when he was young.
"The relationship between the four of them was very good at that time, because the ancestors of the centaur had an agreement with the founder of the castle. They were recognized by the centaur, and they came to the tribe for the final trial to determine whether any of them had They are qualified to get that thing." Firenze said lightly, "But they all failed in the end, obviously, they are not the ones chosen by fate."
"That thing?!" Ivan was stunned for a moment, and his heart suddenly beat fast. Could it be that Firenze was referring to the secret treasure key of Gryffindor, and he couldn't help asking, "What is that thing?"
"I don't know." Firenze shook his head and said slowly, "No one knows its specific shape. For more than a thousand years, according to the ancient agreement, it has been stored in the temple in the center of the tribe. , it emits the same light as the stars every night, and only those who really get it can know its true colors.”(.)
